187 It is better to save yourself than to call for help

"Digging a river?" Beitang Feng's mind was also moved.

"To be exact, it is water diversion, you see this canyon, if you build a reservoir and build a dam, you can store water, and then after the downstream river is built, the water will be diverted down through the new city, and water conservancy irrigation can be solved; The new river can be connected to a river to the south, so as long as the waterway is connected up and down, there will be no worries about flooding. The upstream water only needs to connect the original waterway in the canyon with the river at the location of the new reservoir, which is enough to ensure the adequacy of the water source.

Where the water flow is not smooth, you can set up a waterwheel, and use the natural wind in the canyon to drive the windmill to speed up the speed of the water flow downstream, so as to ensure continuous flow.

As for the winter river water freezes, it doesn't matter, Ice City and Snow City are rich in groundwater, as long as you find a water vein and make wells for every household, the problem of draft can be solved, and it is not necessary to rely on river water, and the people in the north are a little self-contained.

Speaking of this problem, I strongly recommend that the people of Daxia change from drinking river water to eating ground water, there are too many microorganisms in the river water, and the people are not used to drinking cooked water, if they drink raw river water all year round, people are prone to get sick and do not live long.

I found a well called a water tool, which can be ground with stone or made of iron or copper, and the water can be brought up through this pressing device, because it freezes in winter, so as long as the ice on the surface is melted with hot water, the water can still be brought up, and the underground water veins will not freeze, and the frozen area is also the surface of the land."

A few people looked at her with novelty and pasted a small picture next to it, on which was a strange device with a handle (in fact, it was a tool for manual water pressing wells used in modern rural areas in Northeast China), drawing the scene from top to bottom and under the soil layer, showing its principle and how to use it.

Beitang Feng looked at the grains, and his eyes deepened a little.

The grain then pasted a map on top of the river again, so that the reservoirs, dams, windmills, and downstream channels could be seen at a glance.

Beitangyan was very excited, and carefully looked at the picture a few times, and his gaze at the grain was even more intense, "If the princess is a man, he can be a marquis and pay homage to the prime minister."

Beitang Feng also nodded in agreement.

Gu Li looked at the map and continued, "These ideas and plans of mine are completely inferred from the map and some information about the geographical location told to me by the Holy King. However, I can provide detailed drawings of the construction of the reservoir, the method of building the dam, and how the windmill was made."

Dongfang Kong stood on the side, thought for a while, and said, "According to the princess's assumption, the repair of these water conservancy projects and the passage of the new city will cost not a small amount of silver, and it will consume a lot of materials and manpower."

Gu Li nodded in agreement, and then looked at Beitang Feng, "The prince told me that the amount of relief money allocated by the Bingcheng and Snow City imperial courts every year is not small, and the people have reduced and reduced a lot of taxes in addition to the prescribed grain. Over the years, countless people have been affected by disasters, and there are many displaced people at this time, and the pressure on all aspects of the cities to the south is not light. ”

"It's better to save yourself than to ask for help?!" Beitang Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this.

Gu Li nodded and continued, "The imperial court issued a decree to recall the displaced people scattered throughout the country and encourage them to return to their hometowns to participate in the construction.

For those who are homeless, without housing, without food, and without livelihood security, the imperial court will provide uniform food and lodging, and those who participate in the construction will be paid monthly wages, exempted or exempted from their personal taxes, and will be in charge of a set of clothes for each of the four seasons of the year;

Those who are injured and sick due to work will be treated at the expense of the imperial court, and the most important thing in my summer is people, so that although the Snow City and Ice City are huge, but there are many people and great strength, the project will be completed sooner or later, and the new city will be completed sooner or later.

The resettlement of the new city can be replaced according to the proportion of the old city, and those who can afford it can add silver to increase the housing area, replace it with a better house, or replace the shop with a larger area than the original, and all the house deeds and land deeds can only be exchanged to the people one by one, (in fact, it is to adopt the method of modern new rural construction, demolition and resettlement) and recruit capable people to join the reconstruction team, and reward land and houses for those who have contributed to the project; For those who have made great contributions, reward them with houses to settle down, you must know that the masters are no worse than the people in the Ministry of Industry in the people, and many capable people are not willing to show off and cause trouble, so they are hidden.

As long as the imperial court selects competent and honest supervisors, does not engage in corruption, does not deceive the people, and does not enslave innocent people, I believe that a new scene will emerge in five years.

As for the doctors and medicines that I mentioned just now to provide medical assistance to the people participating in the project, they will be sent by the Divine Medicine Valley and the Bohol Hall, and the doctors selected by the Po Ho Tang will be stationed at the construction site, and I hope that the chief inspector of the project will be the prince, you."

Gu Li looked firmly at the crown prince Beitang Feng, who was surprised and excited.

"If the crown prince personally comes forward to take charge of the reconstruction of Ice City and Snow City, then the officials at all levels will not dare to neglect their duties, bend the law for bribes, and deceive their superiors and subordinates.

If this project can be successfully completed, so as to completely solve the internal and external troubles of Ice City and Snow City, then it will truly become the reserve granary of my Great Xia, the prince's merits are important for thousands of years, and it will also leave an indelible style in the minds of the people.

When Gu Li's words fell, everyone in the hall, except for Beitangyi, solemnly saluted the prince to show their respect and expectations for him.

Bei Tangyan was a little shocked, thinking that they had guarded against Bei Tangyi before, did they really spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain?!

Beitang Feng was a little moved to tell the truth, looked at the grain and said solemnly, "I am deeply honored that this prince can be so valued by the Holy Maiden, and this palace will try to persuade my father that the emperor will personally supervise this matter, and I will definitely live up to the expectations of the Holy Maiden for me."

"The prince is serious" Gu Li smiled, for the prince's name for her, he knew that he not only wanted to give her a glory and face, but also a little jealous, after all, behind her was the Helian family!

Then under the indication of the grains, eleven and nineteen unfolded a huge picture, only to see the mountains and rivers above the momentum, the fields are planned in a neat and orderly manner, the village is hidden in the mountains, between the woods, under the gentle slope, the style of the houses is unified, the layout is reasonable and regular, even the connected roads are very wide and neat, there are chickens and ducks in the small yard of the farmhouse, there are wells and vegetable gardens in the backyard, people work hard in the spring, children play and fish by the river in the summer, a row of harvest harvest grain and rice are piled up in the barn in the autumn, and children play in the snow and ice in the winter Adults sit on the hot kang to drink and chat, and there is a thriving scene all year round.

"What is this?" Beitangyan was excited again.
